Jubilee Gang Year End Update for 2018

Jubilee Gang Year End Update for 2018

  As we look back over this year, we feel so blessed and grateful for all God is doing through Jubilee Gang Ministries. We had another amazing year and saw so many lives touched, both children and adults.  This year we traveled over 28,000 miles, ministered in 16 states, 36 churches, which included 22 family events, 10 children’s events, 5 outreaches, and we saw 873 people born again and make Jesus lord of their life. This year we did a lot more family events. It is always awesome to see families learn together, worship together, have fun together, and ultimately experience God together.
   We also got our new stage with the LED video wall up and running this year. It was a great asset to our ministry. One unexpected benefit is that it seems to keep younger children’s attention span longer.  It’s an awesome teaching tool to present the gospel. We are so grateful that this new set is 75 percent paid off.

Testimonies from the Road

 Pastor Dave Reeves  at Redemption Worship Center, Summerville, GA says:  “Jerry, Candy, and Wild Thing made such a connection with our people! We witnessed salvation as well as the gospel explained easily and effectively. We will surely have them back again and again. Thank you so much for your faithfulness to the Lord.”

   Christina Sides-Williams at Agape Worship Center, in Hayti, MO  says: “From the outside its an amazing children’s ministry. But the reality is, its an outstanding ministry for family, singles, teens, couples, and everyone in between. Every night we enjoyed a different service filled with fun and laughter, love and learning and overflowing with God’s holy spirit! Do Not miss the chance to sew into this great ministry while bringing families closer to the Lord.”

Gwen Breinig from Christian Life Center in Merced, CA says, “The Jubilee Gang ministering to family's is a fantastic way to bring families together in worship, teaching, and fun. Jerry brings learning to a new and fun way that kids and adults can retain what they've learned. I know for myself the song he had everyone come forward kneeling and worshiping to "I Want More of You" I can't get out of my head. He teaches scriptures and life lessons at all levels. Loved all the new media and lights. We need more Jerry & Candy's spreading God's Word to our families and having revivals in our communities.”

   Shannon Ozbirm from Cornerstone Church of God, Red Bay, AL says, “The Jubilee Gang is awesome!! They have an amazing set up that keeps all ages engaged and coming back! Jerry & Candy are truly gifted and passionate about what they do! God is truly using them to reach souls for the kingdom through their ministry! We are so blessed and thankful we were able to have them at our church and look forward to them coming back in the future…”

Jubilee Gang Fall Events Update

We just completed our September and  October. fall dates. During these months we ministered in 4 churches in TX, FL, & TN and saw 56 people get born again and  make Jesus Lord of their lives.
Over the next few months we will be doing a few events in our area and the surrounding states as well as resting and preparing for 2018.

 I would recommend any church that wants to go to the next level with your children's evangelism event to contact Jubilee Gang. The words I'd use to describe them are: Excellent. Up-to-date. Christ-Centered. Thank you for impacting so many lives here in Mt. Juliet and our families from the greater Nashville area. We were blessed to have you!
Russ Fairbanks, Lead Pastor, Covenant Fellowship Church of the Nazarene, Mount Juliet, TN

Our 3-day event at Melody Church was AMAZING thanks to Jubilee Gang! The services were fantastic and our adults loved them just as much as our kids did. I have been receiving raving reviews from Senior Board members all the way down to the kids in our kids church about how awesome Jerry and Candy were! It was fun, exciting, and entertaining for all ages! They truly brought a new meaning to a Family Service. The Bible teaching was brought down to a child’s level, but had so much insight added into it even for adults! I would highly recommend Jubilee Gang for anyone looking for that “new spark” for your ministry! They certainly left us motivated to step up our game, and even left us with advice and tips on just how to do it!
Skyler Phillips Children's Pastor, Melody Church in Live Oak, FL

Jerry and Candy are so down to earth and super humble. They have the biggest hearts for kids. Their audio and video set is incredible and a great tool. Jerry preached an awesome word from Matthew 7:24. The games, sound, lights, screen make the kids so eager to learn and grow. Jubilee Gang is a must for churches, camps, and conferences. Jerry ministered 2 night services and taught children's leaders. On Sunday morning our pastor was so thankful and appreciative of JUBILEE GANG'S gift to the body of Christ. The Sunday am family service was a huge success. Thank you for leading 10's of thousands of students to Christ through your ministry. We love you!

Jubilee Gang Summer tour season comes to an end

 Jubilee Gang Summer tour season comes to an end

We just finished our last event for summer 2017. So far this year, we have ministered in 14 states, in 25 churches, traveled over 21,000 miles and have seen 766 people born again and make Jesus Lord of their lives during 27 different events. Its been an exciting year with many victories and struggles. The new video wall and lights performed great and was an awesome addition to our ministry events. We noticed that the graphics on video wall helped hold younger children's attention during our times of teaching. The new lights were memorizing for all ages with many oooohs and aaaahs during our intro's for our events. All this new equipment is only a tool to help teach the word of God and hold children's attention, so they will retain what is being taught. Over half of our events this year were family events. It's always awesome to see entire families including children, teens, and adults learn together,  worship together, have fun together, and ultimately  experience God together. So many times the church separates children, teens, and adults at church. Jubilee Gang Family events are a time where children can experience God and church with their parents and grandparents. We saw many times where entire families came forward and knelt around the altar to worship God and surrender their lives to him. Not only have we seen children born again this year, but several adults and teens have come forward to surrender their lives to God.

Testimonies from the road.

Jubilee Gang is a great ministry! We have had JG at our church many times over the last 9 years. This year they added a family worship time at the altar which I thought was such a powerful time of worship. The message is engaging and children understand and are making heart decisions to love Jesus. One grandma came to me and said, "On the way home, my grandson says, grandma, my heart is clean now!" Thank you Lord and thank you Jubilee Gang for being such a blessing. Neisa Nunez Children's Pastor at Cornerstone Church in Cheshire, CT Being a children's pastor for almost 15 years, I've hosted many children's ministry teams. When hiring / inviting a team to come, I look for several things: 1) successful track record leading kids to Christ, 2) A quality presentation that glorifies our King with its excellence and attracts kids and parents, 3) Ministry Leaders with integrity, who stick by their word (and contracts). Successful Evangelism, Excellent Presentation, Trustworthy Leadership: Jubilee Gang Ministries, and Jerry & Candy Moyer always excel in all three of these areas. I always keep my eyes open for opportunities where I can partner with them. Don Dore' Children's Pastor at Hope Christian Church in North Haven, CT Pictures from the road

Family Revival in South Bend, IN

Last week we ministered at Christian Center Church in South Bend, IN for a Family VBS / Revival.

 During this 3 day event we saw 65 children come forward to be born again and make Jesus Lord of their life. During 2 of these services we saw entire families children, teen, and adults around the altar together  on their knees worshiping God and going after more of Him together.

It's always awesome to see entire families learn together, worship together, have fun together, and experience God together.

Next week we will be  ministering at  2 churches in CT and one church in MD to finish up our summer tour season. Then in Sept. we will be in TX and FL

What an incredible 3 days of ministry at Christian Center Church with the Jubilee Gang! 65 children committed their lives to following Jesus and had a blast doing it.
Scott Phenis Children's Pastor at Christian Center Church in South Bend, IN

I had the honor tonight to be able to sit on an Jubilee Gang service and was thrilled to see such a focused on the gospel interactive service as I experienced. The flow of the service was seamless. There was so many different ways to teach the same truth. As a Family Ministries Pastor, I work to reinforce truths many ways and learned a lot from their service. Jerry and Candy expertly wove the truths for 2 hours and ministered to all of the learning styles as well as to multi age participants. If you are looking for something that is a notch above, you won't go wrong with Jubilee Gang. Time just flew by!
Linda Hartman Children's Pastor in Goshen, IN

What an amazing program. One of the best VBS I have attended with my 4 year old daughter. They easily keep your attention and break it down for kids to enjoy and learn about Jesus. My favorite part was seeing the kids at the altar. Thanks for coming to South Bend! We loved how the whole family was a part of it.

Resurrection Day Harvest in South Bend, IN

This weekend we had the privilege of ministering at Christian Center Church in South Bend, IN on Easter Sunday. 
 
During this one day event we saw around 65 children come forward to be born again and make Jesus Lord of their life. 

Testimonies from the Road

We had the Jubilee Gang come in and do a one service event for Easter Sunday. This was the first time we had ever met Jerry and Candy and the first time we had the Jubilee Gang come and do ministry. They did a phenomenal job from set-up to ministry to tear down. Everything flowed smooth and went better than could be expected. We really wanted to do something big this year for our children's department and when they came to mind I knew its what we had to do. Last year for Easter we had 138 children in our kids church. This year, with the Jubilee Gang, we had 257 in service! God was in this from the very beginning. Our adult service went up about 40 adults, but our kids went up by 119. We had 65 children come forward to receive Christ! This just proves again that if you want to grow a church you cannot forget about the children. What a fantastic day it was. We are so grateful for faithful servants like Jerry and Candy who will give of their time and efforts as well as talents to Kingdom of God and His children. Many times people will do cutting edge technology and forget about The Word, or they will employ The Word, but shy away from any technology. I believe we can do both and do it well. If you are looking for cutting edge technology with the powerful unchanging truth of God's Word then The Jubilee Gang is for you. Don't miss out on a tremendous Blessing for your church and community! Scott Phenis Children / Youth Pastor Christian Center Church South Bend, IN

The Jubilee Gang did a fantastic job ministering to our families in April 2017. Jerry and Candy have a heart for not only leading people to Christ, but also for making them fully committed disciples. They were great to work with and I highly recommend them.

Teaching children about Salvation

There is much confusion today about what it means to be a Christian. It is very important that what we teach children about their relationship with God is accurate. When we just teach children that salvation is “being friends with God” or “having Jesus as their best friend” we are not exactly presenting the full scope of what being a Christian really is. I can be friends with you, but it does not change my life for eternity. It does not give me eternal life. Yes, Jesus should be our best friend and we need to develop our relationship with God but that is a byproduct of the change that occurs in our heart when we are born again.

Some misconceptions in our society about being a Christian are that going to church makes one a Christian, praying and reading the bible makes one a Christian, being born in a Christian family or attending a Christian church makes one a Christian. Or even being religious, following a churches statement of faith, rules, or regulations, or just being a good person makes one a Christian. Most of these things are good and help us grow spiritually, but do not make one a Christian.

When a religious leader came to Jesus in John chapter 3 he asked Jesus what I must do to enter your kingdom. Jesus did not say belong to a certain church, obey more rules, or become more religious. He told Nicodemus you must be born again.

Now there has been a lot of confusion about what exactly being born again is. Is it just a decision to follow Christ, or is it a transformation of the heart of a person when we make Jesus Lord of their life?

If it is no more than making a decision to follow Christ without a change on the inside being a Christian is no different than being a Buddhist, Hindu, or Muslim. It is simply just a religion that we have joined.

What sets Christianity apart from all other religions is the supernatural change that takes place in our spirit man. This is the good news. We do not have to serve God in our own power. He changes us on the inside and gives us his very life and nature so that we can serve him. Its not just rules and regulations he puts the law in our heart when he puts his love in our heart. Rom. 5:5 says that the love of God has been put in our heart by the Holy Spirit. The bible also says that Love is the fulfillment of the law. If we love God and our neighbor we have fulfilled the law.

In Ezek 36:26-28 Ezekiel prophesied “I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. 27 I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them.“ Here Ezekiel was talking about the change that would take place in the lives of believers after Jesus came and paid the price for our salvation.

I know the term “born again” was over used a few years ago when everyone from presidential candidates to movie stars said they were born again Christians. The term got drug through the mud and no one really knew what it meant, so we quit using it. The world asked what does “Born Again Christian” mean and no one knew, so we came up with terms like having Jesus in our heart and being friends with God.

When Adam ate from the tree of the knowledge of good and evil and disobeyed God something happened to Adam. He died. Not physically because we know from scripture that he lived for many years after the fall. He died spiritually. He was separated from God. When this happened he laid the foundation for all man kind to be born separated from God or dead spiritually.

That’s why the bible calls him the first Adam and calls Jesus the second Adam in 1 Cor. 15:45. In 1 Cor. 15:22 the bible says as in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive.

As in the words of the Christian rapper, Tripp Lee “The bad news we were born in sin, The good news we can be born again.”

In order to be restored to the place where God had created us to be we needed a total transformation of our spirit man or be born again. When we receive Christ we are born into God’s family. We are not just adopted but born into it.

The Bible says in 1 Cor. 1:13 that we were delivered out of the kingdom of darkness and translated into the kingdom of God. Or in other words, we are taken out of the kingdom of darkness and put into the kingdom of God. When I see this word translated I always think of the transporter room in the old Star Trek program. We were taken from one place and put into another.

The bible also says in 2 Cor 5:17 that if we are in Christ we are a new creation. Old things have passed away, all things have become new. This does not simply sound like a decision to follow Christ or being friends with God to me. It sounds like a total transformation of the heart.

With out this change in our spirit man we have simply became religious or joined a religion. Without the supernatural element of being born again we have a form of Godliness but deny the power. We have dead religion that we have to strive to be good enough and follow the rules and regulations. When the good news is that Jesus paid the price with his blood on the cross for our salvation, and all we have to do is make Jesus Lord of our life  receive the free gift that God offers us.

Without the blood of Jesus being shed we cannot be born again. Today, we live in a bloodless society. We don’t even see our meat being processed any more. We only see the pre packaged meat that we buy in the store. But Christianity is a bloody religion. From the sacrifices of the Old Testament that God commanded to cover the sin of Israel to the Blood of Jesus being shed to take away our sin in the New Testament. The Bible says in Heb. 9:22 without the shedding of blood there is no remission or taking away of sin.

Now, I am not talking about being graphic and gory with children. I would never scare a child for anything. But we cannot leave the blood out of our faith or teaching. It is the very basic element of our faith. That’s why Jesus commanded us to takes the Lord’s Supper or communion was to put us in remembrance of his sacrifice for us.

I am not a huge fan of the term “having Jesus in our heart” either. The Bible says that Jesus is at the right hand of the father making intercession for us in Romans 8:34. I understand what we mean when we say that Jesus is living in our heart but Jesus himself is not living in us. His life and nature is in us. His character is in us. The love of God is in us. The 1 Cor. 13 kind of love is what is in us.

I realize that some of this is quit technical and is not presented on a Child’s level. Instead of talking about our nature being changed from sin to love, I talk about when Adam disobeyed God he received a sinful heart. We all are born with a sinful heart because of Adam’s disobedience. He represented all of us. When we are make Jesus Lord of our life and are born again we receive a clean heart. I then explain what this means on a child’s level.

I also explain that this free gift will cost you everything. Salvation is FREE! There is nothing we can do to deserve it or earn it. It was paid for with the blood of Jesus. That’s why it’s called grace. We cannot earn it. Grace is an unearned favor. Making Jesus Lord of your life however will cost you everything. Lord means he is your boss, master, supreme authority. We have to turn our back on our way of doing things and start doing things God's way "REPENT" Jesus does not only want to be our savior, he wants to be our lord.

I had heard the terms Jesus died on the cross for our sin, born again, being saved, Jesus is Lord of my life and all the other Christian terminology that is thrown around lightly my entire life growing up as a pastor’s child. But I did not understand it, until I became an adult and researched it out for my self. Sadly to say that many people grow up in our churches hearing these terms and never fully understand it. Then walk away from the faith because it was not presented in a way that made sense to them when they were older. It was presented like a fairy tale or Santa Claus and when they were old enough to think for their selves, they realize it did not make sense and walked away from the faith.

I have recently written another article called "Salvation is a FREE gift that will cost you everything" at the link below.That I would highly encourage you to reed. It goes hand in hand with this teaching and you really cannot have one without the other. 
http://jubileegang.blogspot.com/2016/11/salvation-is-free-gift-that-will-cost.html 

We as the body of Christ need to get back to teaching what “being born again and making Jesus Lord of our life is” so that the children and teens growing up in our churches understand it. If not when they become adults they will see no difference in Christianity, Buddhism, or Hinduism and will walk away from their faith and the church.

Another article that goes along with this is an article I wrote several years ago called "Why I still give altar calls or invitations to be born again." I highly recommend reading this article also.

BY CHRIST…

Romans 3:22 Even the righteousness of God which is by faith of Jesus Christ unto all and upon all them that believe: for there is no difference:

Romans 5:15 But not as the offence, so also is the free gift. For if through the offence of one many be dead, much more the grace of God, and the gift by grace, which is by one man, Jesus Christ, hath abounded unto many.

Romans 5:17-19  For if by one man's offence death reigned by one; much more they which receive abundance of grace and of the gift of righteousness shall reign in life by one, Jesus Christ.) Therefore as by the offence of one judgment came upon all men to condemnation; even so by the righteousness of one the free gift came upon all men unto justification of life. For as by one man's disobedience many were made sinners, so by the obedience of one shall many be made righteous.

Romans 7:4 Wherefore, my brethren, ye also are become dead to the law by the body of Christ; that ye should be married to another, even to him who is raised from the dead, that we should bring forth fruit unto God.

1 Corinthians 1:4 I thank my God always on your behalf, for the grace of God which is given you by Jesus Christ;

Galatians 2:16 Knowing that a man is not justified by the works of the law, but by the faith of Jesus Christ, even we have believed in Jesus Christ, that we might be justified by the faith of Christ, and not by the works of the law: for by the works of the law shall no flesh be justified.

Ephesians 1:5 Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will,

Philippians 4:19 But my God shall supply all your need according to his riches in glory by Christ Jesus.

1 Peter 1:3 Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,

1 Peter 2:5 Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house, an holy priesthood, to offer up spiritual sacrifices, acceptable to God by Jesus Christ.

1 Peter 5:10 But the God of all grace, who hath called us unto his eternal glory by Christ Jesus, after that ye have suffered a while, make you perfect, establish, strengthen, settle you.


BY HIM…

1 Corinthians 1:5 That in every thing ye are enriched by him, in all utterance, and in all knowledge;

1 Corinthians 8:6 But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.

Colossians 1:16-17 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

Colossians 1:20 And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.

BY HIMSELF…

BY HIS BLOOD…

Hebrews 9:11-12 But Christ being come an high priest of good things to come, by a greater and more perfect tabernacle, not made with hands, that is to say, not of this building; Neither by the blood of goats and calves, but by his own blood he entered in once into the holy place, having obtained eternal redemption for us.

Hebrews 9:14-15 How much more shall the blood of Christ, who through the eternal Spirit offered himself without spot to God, purge your conscience from dead works to serve the living God?  And for this cause he is the mediator of the new testament, that by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions that were under the first testament, they which are called might receive the promise of eternal inheritance.

Hebrews 10:19-20 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus, By a new and living way, which he hath consecrated for us, through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;

1 John 1:7 But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship one with another, and the blood of Jesus Christ his Son cleanses us from all sin.

1 John 2:27 But the anointing which ye have received of him abides in you, and ye need not that any man teach you: but as the same anointing teaches you of all things, and is truth, and is no lie, and even as it hath taught you, ye shall abide in him.


THROUGH CHRIST…

Hebrews 10:10 By which will we are sanctified through the offering of the body of Jesus Christ once for all.

Amen.


THROUGH HIM…

WITH CHRIST….

now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me.

Colossians 3:1 If you then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sits on the right hand of God.

Colossians 3:3 For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.


WITH HIM…

Romans 6:4 Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.

Romans 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

Romans 6:8 Now if we be dead with Christ, we believe that we shall also live with him:

Romans 8:32 He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

2 Corinthians 13:4  For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he lives by the power of God. For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.

Colossians 2:12 -15 Buried with him in baptism, wherein also ye are risen with him through the faith of the operation of God, who hath raised him from the dead. And you, being dead in your sins and the uncircumcision of your flesh, hath he quickened together with him, having forgiven you all trespasses; Blotting out the handwriting of ordinances that was against us, which was contrary to us, and took it out of the way, nailing it to his cross; And having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a show of them openly, triumphing over them in it.

Colossians 3:4 When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.

2 Timothy 2:11-12  It is a faithful saying: For if we be dead with him, we shall also live with him: If we suffer, we shall also reign with him: if we deny him, he also will deny us:


BY HIM…

John 14:20 At that day you will know that I am in My Father, and you in Me, and I in you.

John 15:4-5 Abide in Me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, unless it abides in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide in Me. “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing.

John 15:7-8 If you abide in Me, and My words abide in you, you will ask what you desire, and it shall be done for you.  By this My Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit; so you will be My disciples.

IN HIS NAME…

1 Corinthians 6:11 And such were some of you. But you were washed, but you were sanctified, but you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus and by the Spirit of our God.


THE FOLLOWING SCRIPTURES DO NOT CONTAIN THE PHRASES IN HIM, IN CHRIST, ETC. BUT ARE THINGS THAT WE HAVE BECAUSE OF JESUS

Matthew 8:17 at it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Isaiah the prophet, saying:” He Himself took our infirmities and bore our sicknesses.”

Matthew 11:28-30 Come to Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. 29 Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. 30 For My yoke is easy and My burden is light.”

Matthew 18:11 For the Son of Man has come to save that which was lost

Matthew 18:18-20 “Assuredly, I say to you, whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven.” Again I say[ to you that if two of you agree on earth concerning anything that they ask, it will be done for them by My Father in heaven.  For where two or three are gathered together in My name, I am there in the midst of them.”

Matthew 28:18-20 And Jesus came and spoke to them, saying, “All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth.  Go therefore and make disciples of all the nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all things that I have commanded you; and lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age.” Amen.

Mark 1:8 I indeed baptized you with water, but He will baptize you with the Holy Spirit.”

Mark 9:23 Jesus said to him, “If you can believe, all things are possible to him who believes.”
Mark 11:23-24 For assuredly, I say to you, whoever says to this mountain, ‘Be removed and be cast into the sea,’ and does not doubt in his heart, but believes that those things he says will be done, he will have whatever he says.  Therefore I say to you, whatever things you ask when you pray, believe that you receive them, and you will have them.

Luke 10:19 Behold, I give you the authority to trample on serpents and scorpions, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing shall by any means hurt you.

John 4:14 but whoever drinks of the water that I shall give him will never thirst. But the water that I shall give him will become in him a fountain of water springing up into everlasting life.”

John 6:40 And this is the will of Him who sent Me, that everyone who sees the Son and believes in Him may have everlasting life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

Galatians 3:29 And if you are Christ’s, then you are Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.

Galatians 5:1 Stand fast therefore in the liberty by which Christ has made us free and do not be entangled again with a yoke of bondage.

Philippians 2:5 Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus,

Colossians 1:13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:

Colossians 1:26-27 the mystery which has been hidden from ages and from generations, but now has been revealed to His saints.  To them God willed to make known what are the riches of the glory of this mystery among the Gentiles: which is Christ in you, the hope of glory.

Titus 2:14 who gave Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for Himself His own special people, zealous for good works.

Titus 3:7 that having been justified by His grace we should become heirs according to the hope of eternal life.

Hebrews 2:9-11 But we see Jesus, who was made a little lower than the angels, for the suffering of death crowned with glory and honor, that He, by the grace of God, might taste death for everyone for it was fitting for Him, for whom are all things and by whom are all things, in bringing many sons to glory, to make the captain of their salvation perfect through sufferings. For both He who sanctifies and those who are being sanctified are all of one, for which reason He is not ashamed to call them brethren,

Hebrews 2:14-15 Inasmuch then as the children have partaken of flesh and blood, He Himself likewise shared in the same, that through death He might destroy him who had the power of death, that is, the devil,  and release those who through fear of death were all their lifetime subject to bondage.

Hebrews 2:18 For in that He Himself has suffered, being tempted, He is able to aid those who are tempted.

Hebrews 4:14-16  Seeing then that we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession. For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin. Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.

Hebrews 7:19-22 for the law made nothing perfect; on the other hand, there is the bringing in of a better hope, through which we draw near to God.  And inasmuch as He was not made priest without an oath  (for they have become priests without an oath, but He with an oath by Him who said to Him: “The Lord has sworn And will not relent,  You are a priest forever According to the order of Melchizedek’”), by so much more Jesus has become a surety of a better covenant.

Hebrews 8:6 But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises.

Hebrews 9:26 For Christ has not entered the holy places made with hands, which are copies of the true, but into heaven itself, now to appear in the presence of God for us;

Hebrews 9:28 so Christ was offered once to bear the sins of many. To those who eagerly wait for Him He will appear a second time, apart from sin, for salvation.

Hebrews 10:14 For by one offering He has perfected forever those who are being sanctified.

Hebrews 13:5-6 Let your conduct be without covetousness; be content with such things as you have. For He Himself has said, “I will never leave you nor forsake you.”[ So we may boldly say: “The Lord is my helper; I will not fear. What can man do to me?”

Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.

James 4:7 Therefore submit to God. Resist the devil and he will flee from you.

1 Peter 2:9 But you are a chosen generation, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, His own special people, that you may proclaim the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His marvelous light;

1 Peter 2:21 For to this you were called, because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us[ an example, that you should follow His steps:

1 Peter 3:18 For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh but made alive by the Spirit,

1 Peter 5:7 casting all your care upon Him, for He cares for you.

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive us our sins and to cleanse us from all unrighteousness.

1 John 2:1 My little children, these things I write to you, so that you may not sin. And if anyone sins, we have an Advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous.

1 John 3:2 Beloved, now we are children of God; and it has not yet been revealed what we shall be, but we know that when He is revealed, we shall be like Him, for we shall see Him as He is.

1 John 3:14 We know that we have passed from death to life, because we love the brethren. He who does not love his brother abides in death.

1 John 4:4 You are of God, little children, and have overcome them, because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world.

1 John 4:10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins.

1 John 4:15 Whoever confesses that Jesus is the Son of God, God abides in him, and he in God.

1 John 5:1 Whoever believes that Jesus is the Christ is born of God, and everyone who loves Him who begot also loves him who is begotten of Him.

1 John 5:4-5 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the
world—our faith.  Who is he who overcomes the world, but he who believes that Jesus is the Son of God?

1 John 5:11-12 And this is the testimony: that God has given us eternal life, and this life is in His Son. 12 He who has the Son has life; he who does not have the Son of God does not have life.

Revelation 1:5-6 and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler over the kings of the earth.  To Him who loved us and washed us from our sins in His own blood, and has made us kings and priests to His God and Father, to Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen.
